"Good girlth don't thay tho," said sweet little Charlie rather shocked. "Well, I do; stinchy and foolidge!" repeated Katie, as severely as if she had known what the words meant. The pig was not expecting any visitors, and when he found that Charlie and Katie had brought him nothing to eat, he did not seem very glad to see them.
Then something happened which made Arabella forget that she was provoked with Patricia, because she suddenly became so vexed with some one else. A short, stubby boy with a mass of hay-colored hair, ran out from a yard that they were passing. "Ho! Look at the girlth a-havin' a ride out! Look at the horthe! My, thee hith bonthe thtick out!
Any one who says girls haven't as much pluck and endurance as boys may have an argument with Janus Grubb at any time." "Thome girlth," corrected Tommy. "Yes, some girls. That's what I meant you girls in particular. It's a pity all girls don't slant in the same direction. Miss Thompson, if you will pick out some stones for the stove I will rustle the wood. No, not that way. I swum!
"It is, my dear," answered Mrs. Livingston. "You had better prepare yourself for it." "Yeth, I think tho, too. I think I will. I told the girlth what I would do. Here goeth."

"Come out, girlth, and thee the thhip," shouted Tommy, poking her head into the cabin. "Go away and don't bother me," groaned Margery. "Can't you see how sick I am?"
Chub thought if he were to have any fun, he must get it quickly. "Heighoh! You Jumpin' Ginger!" he shouted, at the same time letting fly the six snowballs. The frightened nag reared, and turning sharply about, tipped the pung, completely emptying it of passengers and freight. "That'th a thpill! Girlth an' onionth!
"Yeth," observed Tommy, winking solemnly as she caught Crazy Jane's laughing eyes fixed upon her. Margery took hold of the rope, meanwhile gazing up the slippery slope. Her courage failed her for the moment; then, as the memory of the guardian's easy ascent came to her, she nodded confidently and began the upward climb. "Lean well back," called Harriet. "Hold fatht, girlth," cried Tommy.
Girlth an' onionth!" shouted Chub, but Mandy, who was older, knew quite enough to be frightened, that is, frightened for her own safety. If the little girls were hurt, would some one blame her or Chub? The driver had stopped the thoroughly terrified horse, the pung was not injured, so he thought he might see if the children were harmed.
